from the latest eye surgery and have settled on a local bank rather than a credit union. However, to say BoA will notice my money moving is an understatement. I'm moving my entire medical emergency/house overseas funds. The bank is a better idea because the branches are closer, there are no "guest" ATM fees, and they'll do wireless transfers overseas if I need them. They were solvent enough to turn down TARP funds. They have no investment bank.

I'll be keeping that account for wireless deposits but will be moving the money out when it starts to accumulate.

I'm moving my money because that stunt of moving trillions of dollars of Merrill Lynch liabilities into the FDIC insured bank has me voting no confidence on them.
